Parents, beware. There is heroin in the suburbs. After conducting this interview I am scared as hell. The good news is, if we talk to our kids, we have a chance to prevent them from even trying it once.

This is a story that has been told so many times, that it is heartbreaking. As a parent, it is one of the worst nightmares come true. Peer pressure can pretty much destroy your lives. I wish there was something constructive to tell here, but the fact remains that till the time these drugs can be found for sale on streets, children will continue to buy them. There are no wrong parenting issues here to be given as an excuse.
